Artists Quotes:
“I think it has something to do with the problem of truth, or more accurately its Impossibility…History and anthropology work the same way. They present themselves as framing a truth while they are only presenting a perception. However, the idea of truth is absolutely vital to our ability to exist as a society, this is common sense.”
“I don’t present my version of the story as anything but my version, and a close viewing of the images presented will reveal gaps in my narrative, even absurd ideas, that sit next to more grounded assertions. There is no truth here, or even much common sense.”
